Sorry to hear that .
I haven't used a helmet to weld in probably 30 years.
Just close my eyes.
Tim, you do realize what the only difference between the cheap Harbour freight helmet, and the expensive one is.
I think I have witnessed that. I remember standing in a group of guys in awe as we watched you welding without a helmet. We were all thinking this guy is badass... I think it was the first time I met you.
